✦ Synopsis

Abstraet--~3C-and 29Si-NMR spectroscopy are applied to the structural determination of the low molecular weight cyclopolymer formed from diallylmethylphenylsilane by a cationic mechanism. The ease of transfer to monomer, characteristic of the cyclopolymerization of diallylsilanes, is attributed to the ready formation of a resonance-stabilized chain-end structure.
